Story Post: Rumour #1

While the eyes of the world are on the Chamber of the Great Council, the ears of your esteemed servant, Lady Pettegola, are only ever close to the ground. While the high and mighty are casting their votes, they are also trying to ensure that their rivals are not-so-high, or less-than-mighty, and as their attempts to undermine each other gain traction, you, dear reader of my periodical digest, will be the first to know.

For example - today, a little songbird whispered to me of an offence caused against one of the great houses of the Council. It appears that a promise was made to join the Di Fieri faction, but that promise was not followed through with. The ramifications of this are hard to discern, but at the very least it seems to have resulted in a bruised ego - and a slipped mask.

As for my identity? That’s one secret I’ll never tell. xoxo, Lady Pettegola

Di Fieri have been known to intimidate people into joining their forces. It quite frankly would not surprise me to hear that such a “promise” to join their ranks was only made under duress, and thus one can not really blame another elector for backing away from such a promise once they were safety out of the grasp of Di Fieri’s clutches.

Di Fieri would never intimidate, would never hold a grudge, and would never spread any rumour. I’m sure the subject of this rumor is trustworthy, although the originator is perhaps less so!

Once I would have believed in the good intentions of the Fieri I have come to see as my family… but after today’s cold rebuff, I no longer know what to believe.
